A robust estimation based on maximum likelihood arguments.

The MacBeath circle, a term coined here for the first time, is the circumcircle of the MacBeath triangle. It has a fairly complicated radius, center function, and circle ...

The MacBeath triangle DeltaX_AX_BX_C (a term coined here for the first time), is the triangle whose vertices are the contact points of the MacBeath inconic with the reference ...

The Maclaurin-Bézout theorem says that two curves of degree n intersect in n^2 points, so two cubics intersect in nine points. This means that n(n+3)/2 points do not always ...

The inverse curve of the Maclaurin trisectrix with inversion center at the negative x-intercept is a Tschirnhausen cubic.

A magic hexagram is a hexagram partitioned into triangles such that the sums of numbers in the six directions illustrated above sum to the same number. There are exactly two ...

Let a chess piece make a tour on an n×n chessboard whose squares are numbered from 1 to n^2 along the path of the chess piece. Then the tour is called a magic tour if the ...

The second-order ordinary differential equation y^('')-[(m(m+1)+1/4-(m+1/2)cosx)/(sin^2x)+(lambda+1/2)]y=0.

Polynomials s_n(x) which form the Sheffer sequence for f^(-1)(t)=1+t-e^t, (1) where f^(-1)(t) is the inverse function of f(t), and have generating function ...

A major arc (right figure) is an arc of a circle having measure greater than or equal to 180 degrees (pi radians).
